Are excellent traders really because of their strong self-control?
1. Trading is by no means anti-human. Anyone who says that trading is anti-human is a loser. Or playing word games. Misleading the masses.
2. Traders who make money do not rely on self-control to execute transactions. Instead, they rely on habits.
The primary instinctive reaction of a person is his own self-protection. After training, it can be changed. This is also the reason why people who do not know the truth about trading easily mistakenly think that trading is anti-human.
Another thing is that self-control and willpower are used to deal with current trading behaviors, which are unreliable in the long run. Only habits are reliable. After millions of times of training, a trading action has already formed an instinct, and willpower will never be used to force oneself to do the so-called correct action against one's will.
For example, weight loss: A person who has successfully lost weight has already developed a reasonable eating habit. At this time, he has become accustomed to how to restrain his desires. He is used to seeing delicious food and what he likes to eat, and only eats a few points full. He will no longer eat until he vomits like a fat man. When he eats something he likes, he only eats until he is a little full, and then stops eating. At the same time, he also exercises to burn calories. This has become his new habit and instinct. Can you say that this habit of his is based on self-control? It has nothing to do with self-control at all. Because a new habit has already been formed.
The power of habit is very scary. #BTC
